Wohoo!!! my glass blank arived to day, as i told dcg in another thread, it is a 7wt after all or for those who know the css system 7.28/65. but im fine with it the inital shake/wiggle test makes me super happy, plus i already have a 7wt rio gold so dont need to buy a line for it!

well it's been a up and down ride with this batch of projects. both the glass blank and the st croix grips where i had the black walnut the epoxy let loose while taking the initial shaping with the cutting tool on the lathe(and boy do i really want a freakin metal lathe!!!).

the st croix with the cotton wood bark grip tip. left it long for switch capabilities and i'm pretty glad i did cause my shoulder was not happy with me last night after throwing that thing around for a few hours.
